Jesus's Body might have been Crucified, but his soul was not. This Notion comes from the fact that God Almighty "lifted" jesus (i.e his soul) beforehand (4:158). Jesus himself states in the Quran that God terminated his life (5:117), so he obviously dead, but it was not the Jews who killed him; Jesus's death/crucifiction was made to LOOK LIKE he was in that state (4:157) , but in reality, it is God ALmighty who terminated his life beforehand by lifting his soul (4:158), and leaving his body. (consider people in a vegetative state/brain dead, are they dead, or are they alive? Can you kill them or are they already dead? Do they have souls? or are they soul-less?
